But the Fed policy makers’ new projections suggest the boost wouldn’t be so large that they would have to speed up the pace of rate increases to guard against too much inflation.

A boost to the economy, more production, would mean lower inflation, not higher.

OR.....

If you passed Econ 101 and the Prof wasn’t a Communist....

Individuals AND Small Business will do well.

Note: I expect the AMT will get tossed in the final conference version.

I can’t get pass the paywall to the full WSJ article. But I could tell that you added the parenthetical to the WSJ’s actual title.

The tax bill is not “screwing” Small Business. On the contrary, the tax changes will significantly benefit small businesses.

Pardon my confusion.

Obama just bragged how great the Economy grew under his Presidency, yet Interest Rates were kept as low as possible during that entire time.

Now the Economy is doing great under President Trump and the Fed can’t wait to raise Interest Rates?

What changed?

How so? An improving economy is good for them - the rates are so artificially low right now because there has been zero confidence.
